I'm sick and tired of x360 missing a decent driving game. PGR3 is crap as far as I'm concerned, and FM trough emulation is so sluggish that it's unplayable.
IMO if they were to release Forza now... it would be a rushed product. IMO anything less then at least 2.5 years between releases and your game starts to go to crap because you're only making trivial updates (a'la Madden). I wouldn't wish that on my enemies and I certainly woudln't wish that on Forza. Driving simulators take a lot of time to make well... heck GT4 took what 3, 4 years on a well understood and developed platform? ... and you expect MS's team to pump out Forza 2 in a matter of months
I wouldn't expect to See Forza 2 until Q4 07 at the EARLIEST.
As for "missing a decent driving game"
-Project Gotham Racing 3
-Need for Speed: Most Wanted
-Ridge Racer 6
-Full Auto
-Burnout Revenge
and soon we'll have
-Test Drive Unlimited
-Moto GP 3
I'm more then happy with PGR3, it's everything I was hoping it would be, and I'm patiently waiting the upcoming content on the market place... The Racing genre is VERY well represented on this console with games spanning into most different types of racing games. Simulation is left out at present but that's to be expected. IMO if you're disappointed with the current offerings you're simply expecting too much.
